Yes. Job descriptions never encapsulate everything, either completely or necessarily accurately. They were just written by some guy, and it's amazing how bad a lot of these people are at the hiring/job search process. This is especially true for entry level. This means they don't expect you to hit the ground running. If your skills are related, you absolutely should apply. You should also ignore most "x years" requirements. Just apply to the right class: junior, mid, or senior. Start applying for senior when you think you're a mid-mid.
